Armenia – May 1 2022

Nikol speaks about the need to lower the bar in the Artsakh issue. But how was it that after the war the United States, France, and Russia were talking about the status of Karabakh? Hayk Mamijanyan, the secretary of the opposition “With Honor” Faction of the National Assembly of Armenia,  stated this during the opposition’s large rally Sunday at France Square in downtown Yerevan—and referring to PM Nikol Pashinyan’s recent statement.

“It means that either our country is in a worse situation than after the [Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh)] war [in the fall of 2020], or you, Nikol, want to lower the bar [on the status of Artsakh]. In both cases the answer is the same: Nikol, you have to leave [power]! I call on citizens to join the rally. You shape the future of the country. Traitors have no place in that future,” Mamijanyan added, in particular.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
